Classification society DNV has awarded an Approval in Principle (AiP) to SeaTech Solutions for the design of a new 10,000cbm ammonia bunkering vessel, being developed in collaboration with Oceania Marine Energy.
Measuring 130-metres, the ammonia bunkering vessel is specifically designed to deliver low-carbon ammonia to ammonia dual-fueled bulk carriers at the Port of Dampier, which emerging as a potential hub for low-carbon ammonia bunkering with its strategic location in Pilbara region.
It can supply up to 9,000 cbm of fuel, sufficient to support two round-trips of iron ore shipment between Australia and North Asia.
The vessel’s optimized arrangement and advanced containment systems enable efficient ship-to-ship transfers while ensuring the safe handling of ammonia as both a cargo and marine fuel.
This AiP builds on a recent Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between DNV, SeaTech, and Oceania, signed in April this year.
“Oceania is proud to have worked in tandem with DNV and SeaTech to deliver a flagship, low-emissions marine fuel solution at the heart of Australia’s heaviest resource export hub. The completion of this MOU and AiP award by DNV for our 10,000 m3 clean ammonia bunker vessel marks a major milestone in developing the supply and bunker operation foundations for
